    No, the study is talking about other sources of fructose:

    The study is not saying that fructose is the root cause of obesity from what I see (search doesn’t work properly there). I’m not sure if in such a complex mechanism as a human body a single cause of obesity can exist. Additionally, our bodies differ and a single mutation can change the outcome of the whole process from what I know.

      The title is so misleading that it borders on lying.

      The root cause of all obesity everywhere is not fructose. That implies that if you don’t eat fructose or generate fructose, you will not be obese. Fructose might be contributing factor to obesity, but it is hardly a root cause or “the” root cause.

        No, the title is completely correct - but you should read the article accompanying it ;) Have you tried it?
